Persepolis came highly recommended by my colleague as a place to eat on our most recent trip to St. John's and it not only didn't disappoint, but it exceeded all expectations. The service was exceptional and the food was mind-blowing. I genuinely can't remember the last time I had a better meal. My husband and I shared the Mast O Mosir as an app and devoured it in minutes. I had the Koobideh Kebab and my husband had the Special Chicken Kebab, both of which blew us away. The flavours were to die for, presentation was beautiful and we seriously contemplated licking our plates clean.

This beautiful establishment should be blocked solid every day of the week and whether you're a local or a visitor to St. John's this place needs to be your next meal out.

What a refreshing place to dine. Absolutely addictive naan with yogurt, delicious and aromatic Persian fare served by really kind, warm owners.

It’s nice to have an alternative to the same old vanilla fare you get at so many restaurants here.

Highly recommend this little treasure of a restaurant.

I could sum up my recommendation with simply saying: Warm. Soft. Fresh. Naan.

In all seriousness, everything was so delicious! We decided on a whim to
check out Persepolis for a change. So happy and satisfied we did. Bonus: we love family-owned business!! Genuinely nothing to critique or say negative. Warm delicious aroma as soon as you enter. Vibrant colorful decor. Wonderfully pleasant and friendly staff. And a giant plate and portion. We look forward to returning!

Wow!!! On our frequent trips to St. John’s we have seen this restaurant numerous times, but tonight was the first time we were able to take the time to go there for dinner. My Fiancé and I concur that it was one of the best meals we’ve had in St. John’s. Everything we tried was well prepared, well presented and tasted amazing!! The restaurant itself was impeccably clean, well decorated, and inviting. We had the Mast O Mosir and the Chicken wing kebab to start. Both were incredibly good, and the grilled chicken wings were just unreal. I had the lamb shank with dill rice and my fiancé had the chicken kebab. Both meals
Had very good sized portions and were truly delightful. Even with a glass of wine our bill was just over $100 before tip, and in my opinion we got great value for our money!! We will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful experience visiting St. John’s and dining at Persepolis! The Lamb Shank was incredible—tender and nearly falling off the bone. The Special Saffron Chicken Kabob was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. To top it off, the Majoon was delicious. One of the best restaurants I’ve been to; a fantastic place to eat. Highly recommend!

What a gem! Landed after a long flight and was looking for something nearby, had never tried Persian food before but all the reviews were great so gave it a shot - what an outstanding meal! The service was wonderful, very interesting flavors, wide variety on the menu, well priced, can’t recommend enough!

Bought $200 worth of food for take out. We got one platter of meat, one of rice... no sides, no sauces
